GO, LOVELY ROSE.
Go. lovely Rose-
Tell her that wastes her time and
me!
That now she knows.
When I resemble her to thee.
How sweet and fair she seems to be.
Tell her that’s young. ‘
And shuns to have her graces spied.
That hsd'st thou sprung
In deserts where no men abide.
Thou must have uncommendcd died.
Small is the worth
Of beauty from the light retired;
Bid her come forth.
Suffer herself to be desired.
And not blush so to be admired.
Then die—that she
The common fate of all things rare
May read in thee;
How small a part of time they share
That are so wondrous sweet and fair.‘

Fighting System in Decline.
(New York Herald Tribune.)
Gen. Buliard ends his memoirs us
he began them. with a. lesson on the
shocking unpreparedncss with which
the United States went into the war.
The discovery that a nation cannot
in a. few months organise out of no-
thing a modern war involving its
million of men should be obvious to
any one .who has ever tried to or-
ganise even a week-end picnic. but
it is a. discovery which this country
in the whole course of its history
has never succeeded in making in
time. it is not surprising that ,the
general on his first trip across found
men being sent to ships unprepared
to receive them and supplies being
"piled in pell-mell." so that many
had to be unloaded. The miracle is
that there were any shipsor any sup.
plies .or even any‘mann our pre-
ceding overseas war our troops only
got ashore at Daiquiri by the grace
f a beneficient Providence.
In 1917 the War Department had
“ceased to function" under the sud-‘
den necessity for making war. It
had always happened so before. be-
cause .our War Department had
nearly always been confined within
the limits of a strictly peace-time
organization. The national defence
act,‘of 1920 was practically our first
effort to devise a military machine
which, while inexpensive in peace
time. would be capable to fairing up
the strain of a genuine war effort.
It is only by reading Gen. Bullard's
account of the appallinf“disorgsni-
zation in 1917 ,that one can grasp
/the meaning?! the existing military
system which is clinging with so
much difficulty to the 1920 plsn.'We
now have an army system designed
for'fighting—and the extraordinary
' thing is that it in danger of being
destroyed through the public's fail—

Truck Delays A Heavy Tax On All.
_._._._.
(Port of New Yorit Data.)
Out of every 100 hours a. New
York truck is paid for working. only
thirty-six are employed in produc-
tive service. What uses up the
other sixty-four? Traffic delays.
What is the cost?
Multiply it by all the trucks in

figure. Who pays for it? Every-
body pays for it.
. Evolution in Tennessee

Tho-following is an indication of
the kind of reaction intelligent lllcll
are manifesting toward Tennessee's
effort to stop the processes of scien-
tific research and to re-estublish
iucdiacvul restraint upon the mind
and consciences of mankind. The
quotation is from the letter _ of a
Florida professional mail to a
friend in this city and contains the
substance of the popular revolt
against the effort of Legislatures to
direct the motive and conduct of
our spiritual its well as our civic
lives. The Floridian says:

tribution to start a free kindergar-
ten for your Legislature. Are they

"Thou shalt not kill" has winked at

“She's hurt purty bed." He stuck

of his wife. .
"We are ready to do all that is

Michael had been told that Thur-

returning in the morning. Now.
when -he called. he learned that
Thurber was detained on his out-of-

for several days. He decided to lg-

‘The latter repeated his telephon(

more insolent than before. "If you
want t avoid a. big suit you're

Michael managed to to courte-

It is apparent. therefore. that
what is sought is admission to at
country already developed. entrance
upon markets already established,.a
share in industries and in widespread
prosperity which they had no part iii
